Manchester United eyeing another swap deal

Manchester United have reportedly decided that they are prepared to part ways with Andreas Pereira in order to sign Fiorentina defender Nikola Milenkovic.
United have been keen to sign a new centre-back since the summer, and Milenkovic is one of a number of players who have been identified as a potential signing over the past six months.

Reports have suggested that United may wait until the end of the campaign to push on with their search for new additions but according to La Nazione, United are trying to find a way to sign Milenkovic.

The report claims that Pereira could leave Old Trafford for the Serie A side having been restricted to just 281 minutes of football in the Premier League and Champions League this season.

The Brazilian has just six months remaining on his contract, and it has been suggested that United are prepared to loan the playmaker to Fiorentina in a bid to improve their chances of signing Milenkovic. Pereira started United’s first two Premier League matches of the season, but the Brazil international has fallen out of favour in recent months.

The 22-year-old will see his current contract with the Red Devils expire at the end of the season, and it is thought that the midfielder could decide to move on next month. West Ham United have been linked with a loan approach for Pereira, but Santos are also interested in a deal.

“He is a player that interests us a lot. He is a santista and wants to play for Santos,” Peres told A Tribuna, referencing the fact that Pereira has previously confirmed that he is a Santos fan. Pereira has spent each of the last two seasons on loan in La Liga with Granada and Valencia respectively.
